Dr. Kenya Lee and Dr. Marvin Lee and the team at PureLee Redefined in Colorado Springs, CO will design a highly effective, customized treatment plan for your rosacea.
What is the treatment for rosacea?
A provider at PureLee Redefined reviews your medical history, examines your skin, and lets you know which rosacea treatment best matches your needs. They may recommend:
Hydrafacials
During a hydrafacial, your aesthetics provider cleanses, peels, extracts, and hydrates your skin using personalized skin care products. Hydrafacials result in healthy, radiant skin that looks and feels years younger and is a method of rosacea therapy.
Hyfrecators
Your provider uses a hyfrecator to apply electric energy to your skin, destroy damaged skin, and enhance the production of new skin cells.
Skin care products
The aesthetics team at PureLee Redefined uses revolutionary ZO® skin care products to reduce symptoms of rosacea and give you clearer, rejuvenated, younger-looking skin you can feel confident about.
Medications
Taking certain medications may help prevent or clear up rosacea symptoms.
Your provider works with you to create a personalized treatment plan you’re comfortable with to optimize anti-aging results.
How can I keep my skin healthy?
Before, during, and after rosacea therapy, there are several ways to keep your skin as healthy as possible. Examples include:
- Protect skin from the sun using a well-formulated broad spectrum sunscreen with SPF of 30 or higher
- Avoid rosacea triggers such as hot drinks, alcohol, and spicy foods
- Quit smoking if you smoke cigarettes
- No harsh cosmetic products on the face and nose
